THEY DESERVED 1T.

Nobody sheds tears when bear IS
gored by bull. or a bull is squeezed by
bruin. OF all the different species Of
gambling which have cursed commu-
mites the most reprehensible is grain
gambling. The spectators who gamble
in stocks and bonds are not the enemies
of society in the sense that grain gam
blers are. The deals made by the
former only affect the moneyed classes,
while the deals made by the latter are
felt most severely in the homes of the
poor and among the bread-winners.
When a stock gambler goes under the
announcement Of the fact is received
with Indifference by the public, and is
dismissed with the remark that he got
nothing more than he had right to
look for. SIS persons who play with fire
must expect to have their fingers
scorched. But when Il grain gambler
fails there is not only an entire lack of
public sympathy for him, but there is in
the public heart feeling of grim salts
faction that the fates have awarded him
a punishment which the law should have
inflicted. Every dollar made by the
wheat gambler represents just so much
additional misery and distress in some
humber household The filling of the
wheat gamblers Golfer means just to
that extent the depletion of the Widows
!errei 1t is a nefarious business at
!5=est, and the law ought to intervene TO
sat an end to it.

Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, July 15.-The New York
grain market stands the shock of the
Chicago panic very well. Though the
decline has not been so great as in Chi
cagO, still it has tested the staying pow
erS of the bulls for all they were worth.
July delivery has declined cents in
two days. To-day July declined ~
cents and the other months u cent. The
decline has been so heavy that the call
for margins to cover contracts has re-
suited in S350.000 being deposited Mon
day, $500, 600 Tuesday and three days
yet to come. These margins have been
deposited promptly, and not a
failure has been announced. There
were large purchases by foreign
shorts to-day. The total transactions
We're about 20,000,000 bushels. On the
exchange conservative men were of the
opinion that the storm, sharp as it was,
was merely clearing away Of the dis
cause trading to be conducted on more
solid basis. 1t was generally conceded
that the worst of the trouble was over.
The influence of the Chicago panic on
the stock exchange was not important
though profitable. There is naturally
enough feeling of hesitancy on the
part of local operators about entering
into new engagements at the moment
which is reflected in the diminished
volume of transactions, but the sales for
long account have perceptiGiy dimin-
ished and are not likely to be renewed
unless affairs take an unfavorable turn.
The rallying power of the market was
certainly the feature of to-day's specu-
lation. London sent some large buying
orders and took in the aggregate of So
coo shares of stock, including st. Paul.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.

"Alidor" continues to draw. The perform
ance last night was exceedingly smooth and
the audience very large. Notwithstanding
the exceedingly hot weather people will turn
out to hear the great opera. al
Miss Mae Murphy entertained box party
including Senator and Mrs: Sabin, at the
''Alidor" performance last evening" e
Manager Scott-Yes. the receipts of the
"Alidor' engagement continue to grow with
each nights performance. If all the SUBJ
scribers to the guarantee fund would take as
much interest in the matter as do there
would be no danger of having to plank up
anything ON the subscriptions. Btu
as there are only three more nights
and one matinee performance, it
will require every one interested
to make a strong pull and q pull altogether
to bring the receipts up to cover tn eexpenses.
1t would be better for the subscribers to pay
their share in buying tickets and affording
themselves and friends the enjoyment of the
opera than to have to pay it in cool cash after
the engagement is over without any compen-
sating benefit. If it was proper for m to
would be that we make the last two nights a
perfect ovation.
Two ladies' coming out of the opera house
last evening were engaged in the following
dialogue: First lady: Wasn't that awfully
sweet i'll Mae Murphy to occupy a box to-
night?" Second lady: SIT was, indeed.
And this was the very night, too, that it had
been arranged for her to- sing 1 felt all
broken up all evening that she was not on
the stage. 1t would have been such a
pretty compliment to ST. Paul if she had
been permitted to sing. Yet think she did
a graceful thing in occupying box"

EASY FOR DETROIT.
PITTsBURG, Pa, June 15.-To-day's
game was so One-Sided that there was
little interest in it after the third inning,
when the DetroitS took lead OF three
runs, which they steadily increased
until they were so far ahead that the
home club could never head them off.
Morris pitched as though he had re-
covered his lost effect. Geschell pitched
only fairly well. He was well supported
except in the last three innings, when
the errors of the visitors were made.

singles and a double out of five times at
the bat. Attendance, about 5000. Score:

that they were not receiving the right
kind of treatment from the contractors,
and at first contemplated striking until
their demands were acceded to. Pub
lie sentiment was strongly against
check being placed upon Omaha's
prosperity through the relaxing of
building operations, and in addition to
the intelligent men who are at the head
of the carpenters organization fully
appreciated the fact that the
long season of idleness even
ii strike should be success
fully carried into effect would,
i'll the loss thereby entailed, counterbal-
ance the advantage gained. For these
reasons the contractors and carpenters
conferred with each other with view
OF compromising or otherwise smooth
ing over their differences before the eX-
treme measure of strike should be re-
sorted to. Representative of both sides
accordingly, after amicable conSulta-
ton, came to the following agreement:
Mine hours to constitute days work,
except on Saturdays, when it shall be
eight and one-half hours, and pay at the
rate of thirty cents per hour" The car
penters express themselves as entirely
satisfied with this arrangement, and say
that the contractors met them in a gen.
erous spirit, promptly conceding to them
whatever they showed to be right and
just. The example is and excellent one
for st. Paul workingmen and contractors.
Thus far there has not been really
serious, amicabla and intelligent cOnsid
Grafton of the questions at issue by rep
resentativeS of each side. We believe
that, should such a conference take place,
the difficulties could be overcome.
Whichever side shows the greater dis
position that way will be more likely to
gain public sympathy, and the party to
controversy having that is generally
in the right. The city has suffered
enough already through the general re-
Taxation of building, and the public is
not inclined to look with favor upon
willful continuance of the present state
of things when intelligent arbitration
would result in the city being once
more hive of industy.

LA CROSSE GETS ONE.
Minneapolis and La Crosse Play
ing at See-SaW.

Minneapolis and La Crosse are see
saving for place in the lead and the
result is still a tie. Yesterday morning
Minneapolis was ahead, but in the after
noon, by winning the game, La Crosse
rose to a tie. Umpire Sullivan was a
potent factor in this result, his decision
giving Meister out at the plate being
wide of the mark. He also made two
bad decisions at the second bag, one
fayoring each side, and both showing
lapseS of judgment in an umpire usually
very impartial and satisfactory. At an
other time Minneapolis man was fairly
caught mapping at second, but Sullivan
was not looking and the man was safe
The game was very close and exciting
one, marked by sharp playing and
rather light batting. In the total
bases by hits they were even, but
Winkleman gave three spectral hits on
balls to one by Kennedy, and Mime
apOliS hit more flies to the outfield. In
the fifth inning McKeever was called
for fly that should have
been Fosters and could not got fairly
under it. In the same inning
Foster fumbled grounder, and these
errors, with two singles and a double,
yielded three runs for La Crosse. In
the sixth Minneapolis got in single,
double and triple, bringing in two runs,
and but for the wrong decision would
have tied the game. About the only
feature of the game was the good work
OF Murray and Meister, for Minneapolis,
and Miller for La Crosse. The score is
as follows:

CURsING THE PRESIDENT.
Strong Language From the Com
mandeF OF the G. A. r.

ctrOnS Language FROM the Com.
mander OF the G. A. II.
New YORK, June 15.-"May God
palsy the hand that wrote the order.
may God palsy the brain that conceived
it and may God palsy the tongue that
dictated it!'' G. A. r. veterans heard
these words with bated breath
and glanced at each other with
awe as the terrible sentences
rang out from the commander-in-chief
OF the Grand Army of the Republic to-
night in Association hall in Harlem.
1he occasion was reception rendered
to the cOmmander-in-chief by Alexander
Hamilton Post No. 1S2, q. A. Il. Visit
orS were present from every Grand
Army post of this city and vicinity. Post
Commander A. NJ. Underhill presided.
Among those present were Senior Vice
Department Commander Lafferty. Jun
Or, Vice Commander Charles Grant, Past
State Commander Hunger, of Haver-
shaw, and Corporal Tanner. Before
the meeting opened it became known
that Gen. Ross, of Austin, Tex. had re-
ceiyed a letter from the edjutant gen
eral of the United States army, stating
that the president had ap-
proved the recommendation and
the writer had been instructed by
Tile secretary OIL war TO return all the
Confederate flags in the care of the war
department to the Southern states from
whose regiments the flags had been cap
tured during the war of the rebellion.
Gen. Fairchild entered the hall with
Stern-set features. Without hardly
waiting for the usual courtesies
the one-armed leader burst forth with
the expressions recorded above. The
general told of the news received by
telegraph, that the president had ap-
proved of the return of the rebel flags,
and that those flags had been won by
the veterans of the G. A. r. in open con-
fiiet with the enemies of the nation.
The veterans had placed their trophies
III the care OF the war department They
were intended, he said, to be kept in the
archives of the nation as mementoeS of
hard-won fields of battle. He continued:
How can the present loyal govern
mentS of the Southern states accept EN-
blems of treason after their professions
OF loyalty to the Union?"
Dies MONIES, To-, June 15.-Gen. Tut
tie, commander of the Grand Army of
the Republic for Iowa, to-day asked Gov.
Larrabee to protest to President Cleve-
land against any rebel flags captured by
Iowa troops being surrendered to the
South, and to take legal steps to enjoin
any such surrender. The governor has
complied with the request.

WHAT THE CROCUs SAID.

Month after month, and day by day,
Beneath the sweet mother earth lay,
And slept and woke, and slept again,
Lulled by the whispering winds and rain.
At times, within my shrouded bed,
felt the restless, hurrying tread
OF human steps, and caught the beat
Of human hearts above the feet.
l kept so still within my place,
That though | did not see face,
heard each breath that passed my way
And knew what every heart did say.
knew their hopes, knew their fears,
heard their laughter and their tears,
But over all l heard a 'plaint
Now lifted high, now falling faint;
A 'plaint of doubt and doubling dread,
questioning, hungry cry that spread
From heart to heart, until heard,
Sometimes, no other sound or word.
And all the while the rootlets grew
About my bed; from old and new
felt the quickening pulse and breath,
The throes of life that conquered death.
knew that when the months came round
My leaves woE p.break the sheltering ground.
Would leap like light from out the earth
In all the glory of new birth.
knew that thus from life to death.
From death to life, this living breath
OF bud and bloom, of leaf and flower,
Eternal sprang from hour to hour.
Yet while thus sentient in my shroud,
Above me, moving in cloud,
These restless hearts cried in the bright
And high MONDAY: God, give us lightp'

THE MINNEAPOLIS FEELING.
The Big Firms of the Flour City
Turned the Corner"

The Big Firms of the Flour City
Turned the ssCorner."
The Minneapolis Market Record says
of the situation:
Minneapolis firms did not appear to take
much stock in the safety Of the deal and gen.
orally kept their sails well hauled in. Mill
ers are unusually smiling, and as they were
hurt by the false position wheat was held at
they have reason to be satisfied with the turn
of events.
The Northwestern Miller, in its issue
to-day, will say:
The long expected tumble in wheat has
come, and with it the worst panic known for
a score of years in Chicago, where the net
drop yesterday was 20 cents on June wheat
while to-day witnessed further fall of 5
cents with a wildly fiuctuating market and
the announcement of about dozen heavy
failures of brokers whose customers ''laid
seems likely to be remembered for some time.
Local operators have been on the safe side as
a rule, and if their brokers hold their heads
above water, will come out winners. The
small fry who patroniZe local bucket shops
were badly bitten yesterday. The general
situation remains unchanged. The visible
supply is likely to decrease rapidly from now
on, but we shall have very heavy surplus
when the new crop begins TO move. Despite
a host of canardS to the contrary, there is
plenty of good wheat in the Northwest for
have closed out their holdings on the late
bulge. Those who did are S@1Oc per bushel
better Off for the corner. The drop here for
the week is 10l2c. Shipments have again
been the heaviest on record and receipts were
large, though less than shipments.

REoRGANIzED CAR COMPANY.

The reorganization of the Northwest
ern Car company is not only subStan-
tial victory for Senator SABIN, but it is
personal vindication for him. 1t is
seldom that man can crawl from under
such load as fell upon him when the
old company collapsed, and afterwards
straighten himself out III the eyes OF the
world. The fact that S. per cent. OF the
creditors, representing $500, ,0OO,agreed
to place Mr.. SABIN again at the head OF
the company with authority to go ahead
and reorganiZe its operations is an eX-
preston of confidence in the man and
his business capacity. which amounts to
a full vindication of his conduct in the
past. The statement made by MIR.
SABIN in his interview in the GLOBE
this morning is reasonable eXplana-
ton of the causes which produced the
failure of the old company. 1t will be
particularly gratifying to the people OF
the Northwest to learn that the car
company has been reorganized and that
it is yet destined to be the success that
its originatorS projected.

1t was most graceful thing in the
New York Press club to erect monu-
ment in memory of New York's dead
journalists. But the living need charity
more than the dead. The money spent
in erecting the marble shaft in the Cy-
press Hills plot would have gone long
ways in Frightening the hours of some
of the overworked and underpaid news
paper men of the metropolis.
~
But, as Mr.. DEPEw said in his Grafton,
the old days of universal acquaintance
and interest, when the chords of SYM
pathy connected all the members of a
community. and the friendless and suf-
fering felt at once neighbor's helpful
hand, are gone. In the rushing methods
of this surging age Charity thinks that
it has done its duty to the living when
it buries the dead.
~
During the recent "Alidor" imbroglioa
certain old lady, who had personal rea-
sons for wanting to keep the matter out
of the newspapers, said to another lady
who was also mixed up in the row:
'Don't talk to the reporters. You can't
rely OH these newspaper men. You tell
them one thing and they will write it
up entirely different. have had a great
deal of experience with them and now
listen to what tell you. Keep the re-
porters away from you." How very diff
ferent was her testimony from that
which the Rev. DR.. TAIaIAGE bore to
the fidelity and reliability of newspaper
workers in his address at the dedication
of the New York Press club monument.
~
"While the journalistic profession,
like all Others" said DR.. TALMAGE.
"has those in its ranks unfit and un-
worthy, in all my acquaintance have
never found men characterized by more
fidelity and of spirit of fairness than
those who for the most part compose the
newspaper profession. Though in per-
petual converse with them i have never
been betrayed, and there are not a half a
dozen newspapers among the thousands
in all the land to which could not go if
were wronged in full confidence that
my wrong would be righted." DR.. Tall
MAGE's judgment is correct. Only the
wicked flee when the newspaper man
pursueth.
